30 Days (Find it on Hulu)
I LOVED Supersize Me so I had to check this show out, albeit pretty late. It's absolutely fantastic. Unfortunately canceled but EXTREMELY powerful and intriguing documentary work. Also, this guy puts his wife thru A LOT of shit.

Top Gear is back, and is still clearly the best show on TV.
The next 7 weeks are going to be awesome.

Top Gear is pretty much the only thing I'm making a point of watching every week at the moment, now that the Apprentice has finished.
Summer TV is dire!

Yes it is, and that's why I'm watching the rest of X-Files Season 1. I got 1 and 2 for Christmas, and after marathoning the first 3 discs of S1 I kinda forgot about it for a few months; now I'm back on the horse.
4 episodes left in Season 1.
When I was younger I wasn't allowed to watch the X-Files, but my dad watched it anyway because he really didn't care what mom said. (They divorced in 1997.) But I watched the show pretty religiously after mom and I moved out, 'cuz by that point I didn't care what mom said either. I kinda stopped around maybe 2000 or so- I think I saw maybe 2 eps with the new guy before I stopped caring about TV all of a sudden. But watching these old episodes, it's like, I've seen maybe part of one episode of the first season (the last part of "Ice" specifically) but I get this strange sense of nostalgia for a time when my life was simpler and Fox had shows worth watching.

X-Files never really got me going. I'd rather watch old Outer Limits or Twilight Zone if I want freaky.

Mm. Ice was the best-crafted episode of season 1 for me, despite the gaping logic holes in the plot. Made for some great TV, shame you didn't see it all pristine and unspoiled-like in one viewing.

I've finally caught onto The Big Bang Theory and am currently wading my way through the geek-gasm that is Season 2.
Hilarious and utter genius show; it blows The IT Crowd (after season1 which was awesome, and season 2 and 3 which were terrible) out of the water.
Penny FTW.
Actually no, motherfucking SHELDON FTW.

hahahahahaHAHAHAHAHA
3 eps into season 2 and it already blows S1 right out of the water. Especially the fantastically loony episode "Blood."
DO IT

Also I missed the last couple Louie Theroux documentaries (Law & Disorder series + A Place for Paedophiles) so I'm going to download and give those a watch. Theroux produces some excellent television.

I'll spoilerize this if you haven't caught up on your House viewing yet.
Where do you think the writers are going to go with House in rehab?
